Nummer 11
A TV commercial is being prepared and shot. The product to be advertised is a laxative - a synonym for the majority of the acting persons. The director Gecko Bauch is surrounded by a number of friends and co-workers, who care much more about their own interests than their common work. Into this group, and very close to Gecko, comes Sophie, who actually has nothing to do with these people.
